Laptop Beeps on start up 1 long and two short beeps

\015 On starting my HP Pavillion DV6000 the screen stays blank and I get one long beep and two short beeps, I have checked the memory boards and described in the HP help guide but this does nothing. If I turn the pc on and then of again after the beeps and repeat this over and over eventually it fires up and works ok. can anyone help????\015

Answers :

You've checked the memory board/card, but have you tried using another memory card? The 1 long followed by 2 short beeps indicates that there's a problem with the memory card. Try to remove the memory card, then wipe the gold traces with a dry cloth and put it back in.

If you try replacing the memory card but you get the same problem, then proceed with the video card.
